Residents turned out in droves at the Community Board 1 meeting last night to protest plans for the Lodge, a bar at 20 Warren. The committee unanimously agreed: "That bar should not be on that street," said one member.

The bar has applied for a liquor license not far from the current location. And it has trademarked a new name.... UPDATE: The new bar is NOT affiliated, says Raccoon Lodge's owner (and the bar will close June 30).

The Warren Street dive bar didn't close after New Year's Eve after all. It'll likely stay open through the end of the month, and possibly longer, while lease negotiations down the block continue.
